Our employees worked overnight paving parking lot locally and asked for late checkout. Maintenance decided to change the batteries in the door at 9am which woke our employees. Front desk said they would offer a night reimbursement for the inconvenience but has to go through Expedia. Please advise how you will rectify this asap

The room was clean and nice in size. The not so good things: poor water pressure on the shower. The air condition was not working well and there were racing cars outside making a lot of noise during the night… in the morning breakfast food were incomplete and it took a while to refill so we left
